Google always working on making Android apps more attractive. Last August the company brought a handful of Gboard’s Material You with more colorful themes, and now some more features are added, along with a shortcut bar also. A few weeks before in the Gboard layout, some changes were also made as it extended to the navigation bar.
New Features of Gboard Material You:
- In this Gboard Material You include, click on the chevron icon in the top-left corner slides with several tools, layouts, and shortcuts.
- Some more Theme, Text Editing, Clipboard, GIF, Floating, One-handed, Translate, Share, and Sticker. This split keyboard on foldable is also included.
- The shortcut for Google Gboard is the quick access point are joined together or housed in rounded rectangles showing the impact of Material You.
These all features are available in the Gboard 12.1 beta version which fully supported Material You with a redesign of that bar for a friend of the site RKBDI. The corner button on Gboard is still a circle but now you can use it in a 3×3 grid icon. This feature same as the Voice Assistant typing UI available on Pixel phones. The new look of the item’s background enhances through the Colorful themes.
Now there are five shortcuts available in the bar of Gboard, and it’s up to users how many items they want to show on Gboard. It is very easy to customize where you need one or two. The feature was added when the previous three-dot/overflow at the right was removed and for entry, there is a corner button.
Now the new view of Gboard is compact and no longer centered. The Material You concept mainly focuses on the modernization of phone devices making its UI more colorful and attractive. In the settings app there you also experience Material You with a list that is larger than before and MD3 toggles are now used throughout.
